Our quarterback's contract was up this offseason, and in Flacco we're talking about a guy who periodically mouths off to the press about how he feels disrespected and how he feels he is 'elite.' What did we do? Only made him the highest paid player in the NFL.

He also slated the idea of a cold weather Super Bowl, quite publicly and relatively controversially (due to his choice of word).

It seems like Harbs is being painted as some sort of control freak here, who needs to have everyone in line or they're out of the door. I'm sorry, I simply don't get that impression from the man at all. He seems like a guy who is big on collaborative success, and even Ed Reed himself said that the way he handled that 'mutiny' said a huge amount about the strength of Harbs' character._________________

I don't really care what the reason was, it was the right move to get rid of him. Going into this off-season, between the draft and UDFA, I like having that extra room at LB for younger/future starters._________________

Just a heads up I did an interview today and no way said I was cut because my views, Ayanbadejo tweeted last night. I said my talk was louder than my production & at 36 when you are not producing it is a fair move. You can find cheaper guys to do what I do. Ravens are the BEST organization in the nfl period!

Ozzie on Ayanbadejo: "The door may not be closed to bring him back to help us again.

I'm up for another Prescott Burgess situation. Who's with me?

I mean, I'm of the belief that we would not have won a championship without the hard work of the Purple Boomerang in the years prior. He's a saint, a scholar, an occasional sleeper agent embedded in New England, and I hope Bisciotti had a ring made for him._________________
